The African Parks Foundation Switzerland (APFS) builds meaningful connections between individuals and institutions in Switzerland and one of the most ambitious conservation initiatives on the African continent. As African Parks’ Swiss affiliate, we support the long-term protection and management of a growing network of national parks and protected areas across Africa - safeguarding biodiversity, strengthening local communities, and preserving some of the continent’s most threatened ecosystems.
Our mission is to support those who are passionate about Africa’s wild landscapes and the people who rely on them. Through dedicated fundraising efforts, knowledge-sharing, and collaboration, we help ensure that this passion translates into real, lasting impact.
APFS is a registered charitable foundation in Luzern.
